2-3 years? Heck, that would be barely enough time to litigate the
environmentalists into submission.

Try 10-15 years. Sad.


As slow as litigation goes when parties are motivated to keep up the
fight, I would at least double that 2-3 years. I also see new litigation
battles being sprung up by the luddites as things move along.

At least those who do construction are better at pushing to stay on a
schedule and getting actual work done than litigating luddites, so I think
15 years still sounds realistic.
